Hello you guys!
Right now I'm listening to music in order to develop my listening skills. There's a song I really like to listen because of its lyrics and also because it is quite easy to understand. The song is "Hello" by Lionel Richie. In fact this is the only song I've ever listened about him, maybe you could recommend me another one or some more artists as well.
What kind of music do you like? I have the idea that if we want to learn foreign languages we gotta listen to music performed by native speakers, but not just listen to it, we gotta try to understand what we are listening to.
I really like to listen to music sung by native English speakers but sometimes I just can't understand what they're saying! That happens to me when I listen to hip-hop artists, specially Lil Wayne. I'm conscious that he's often offensive and rude in his lyrics and I'm not proud of it, but the thing is that I want to understand what he's saying! It's like a challenge for me.
Reggae music is another genre I like too. The great Bob Marley is my favorite, but I've also listened a little of Gregory Isaacs and his song Sunday Morning.
Well that's all for today. Hope you like it and feel free to correct mistakes you find.
Best Regards.

Hay la llevas carnal, es todo! De hecho la musica es una muy buena herramienta para aprender otro idioma, en ingles te recomiendo escuchar musica country o maroon 5, escucha y lee la letra para relacionarlas y familiarizarte con la pronunciacion. Hechale ganas carnalazo!

This is a great idea. He is a great artist with a HUGE catalog of songs. First as the lead singer of the Commodores, then after a long string of hits with them he had another long string of hits as a solo artist. "All night long" is a fun one!

You're written English is very good. I too like listening to musicians from other countries and different types of genres. I used to have an app that would show the lyrics of the song playing at the time, but can't find it anymore. The problem is that I like French, Swedish, German and even Portuguese artist so I don't even bother trying to figure the lyrics out. I just listen and enjoy. I used to love listening to Mana and actually taking my time to learn and understand their lyrics, but I unfortunately don't have the same time I did when I was younger.
